Request Server - Does it have to send back a response?

[vorlon2261]

Hi all,

I'm trying to get the request server to handle some incoming emails, and the system
its integrating with will send a response back, so the Request server doesn't need to. So I set it to output nothing, thinking it would work like cron and send no email. But the request server sends a blank email.

Is there any way I can get the request server to not send a response back?

Thanks!

Alas, no, it's a bug :-( I'll put a bug report in for it.

workaround:
create a rule for the internet routes with something like this:

Code: Select all

ORIGINATOR="nameofrequestscript +REQ / OU1, OU2/CN=nameofrequestscript" ACTION=DISCARD

Guys,

I finally got to test if 10.0.0 fixed this problem, only to find its still there.
Any word on when its likely to be fixed? (The users are getting restless)

No fix yet.

Are you saying that Dirk's suggestion of a workaround didn't help ?

It didn't initially, so I decided to put up with it until 10.0.0, but since there was no fix in there, I've revisited it and played "spot the typo"... ;-)

Please add the line

Code: Select all

REQ_NO_EMPTY_REPLY=TRUE

to general.cfg and then restart the Request Server.

This works like a charm... Thanks Dave!
